A bell made from mealworms, nuts, sunflower hearts, and fruit, rather than rendered fat, is what avoids the melting and mess of a suet cake. That's the format behind the Bugs, Nuts and Fruit Bell, a 4 x 4 x 5 inch bell that comes with its own hanger.
What's in the Bell, and Why Doesn't It Melt or Make a Mess?
The bell is made from mealworms, nuts, sunflower hearts, and fruit rather than rendered suet fat, which is why it's marketed as no waste, no mess, and never melting, unlike a suet cake that can soften in warmer weather.
When Can This Bell Be Put Out?
It's positioned as suitable for year-round feeding rather than only the colder months, since it won't melt the way a suet cake can in warm weather.
Who This Is For
- Anyone who wants a bird feed without the melting and mess of a suet cake
- Someone feeding year-round rather than only through winter
- A gift for someone who doesn't already own a wire suet cage
- Someone who wants one product that covers several favorite ingredients at once
Quick Questions About This Feeding Bell
Does it come with a hanger?
Yes, a hanger is included, and it can also be mounted on the separately sold Mr. Bird Seed Bell Hanger (item 805) instead.
What are the bell's dimensions?
It measures 4 x 4 x 5 inches.
What's the claim behind the mix of ingredients?
The mix of mealworms, nuts, sunflower hearts, and fruit is marketed as attracting a wider variety of birds than any single one of those ingredients would on its own.
One Bell, No Cage or Cleanup Required
A suet cage means an extra piece of hardware and a cake that can soften in warm weather. The Bugs, Nuts and Fruit Bell skips both, ready to hang straight out of the packaging.
